Spectacular Springs In The Ocoee Region!

Spring is spectacular in Cleveland, Bradley County and the Ocoee Region! It’s a great time of year to enjoy the weather and beautiful scenery. Take a stroll along the Greenway, take a tour of Lee University or enjoy a picnic in one of our parks. It’s also a wonderful time to take a self-guided walking tour of our historical downtown. The walking tour guides are available at the Cleveland/Bradley Chamber of Commerce and at the Museum Center at 5ive Points.

One of the most beautiful views in Bradley County can be found at Morris Vineyard & Winery and spring is an excellent time to pay them a visit. Bring your family and spend the day picking your own raspberries and blueberries.
